The promotion has begun with an announcement today that gamers who pre-order Darksiders II on PS3, Xbox 360, or PC will be eligible to receive a t-shirt. Gamers who have pre-ordered have to send in their pre-order receipt, the barcode from the game, a check or money order for $4.50 in shipping and handling, and a form (which must be filled out) that can be found here to receive the t-shirt. The offer extends to existing pre-orders and expires on July 8th. Entries must be postmarked by September 1st.

Additional rewards will be announced throughout the “Summer of Death,” including digital content and “money can’t buy prizes.” Gamers can keep up to date on the promotion at Darksiders II‘s Facebook page.
